started MBA and M.Tech. Programme at Belgaum with about 205 students
studying in all. Sixteen from among the affiliated colleges were
recognized to get assistance under the World Bank supported. TEQIP
program in the I Phase. This year as a novel measure academic autonomy
has been provided to 17 affiliated Colleges after due processes.

The
University has very successfully achieved the tremendous task of
bringing various colleges affiliated earlier to different Universities,
with different syllabi, different procedures and different traditions
under one umbrella. The University implemented common curriculum for UG
in 1998 and revised syllabi again in 2002 for all the courses and
uniform procedures were adopted. As a further step in standardization,
the subjects & syllabi of related branches are being made common
upto the fourth semester. The University has already revised the
syllabus of MBA with effect from the academic year 2001-2002 and has now
revised the syllabi of all M.Tech courses & MCA. The University
plans to bring in further flexibility in the curriculum, so that any
changes or revisions may be introduced particularly with respect to
electives, as and when the technology changes or the need arises.

The
first batch consisting of approximately 13,000 students of Under
Graduate B.E. / B.Tech. students who were admitted in the academic year
1998-99 came out of the portals of this University as graduates during
the month of July 2002. Four batches of M.Tech., 3 batches of MBA and 2
batches of MCA students have so far passed out of this University. The
total number of Post-Graduates who have completed their studies in this
University is around 5000.

The
University has MOU’s with various leading organisations like IBM, INTEL
Asia Electronics Inc., Ingersoll-Rand (India) Ltd., Bangalore and
Microsoft. These MOU’s will help in various ways to train the faculty,
conduct teachers training workshops, student projects and enable the
colleges affiliated to the University to get software at a highly
subsidized rate. Already Intel has arranged many training programmes for
Engineering College Teachers. 153 teachers were trained by Microsoft.
These MOU’s will further the Technological growth of the state. Many of
the industries are showing keen interest in participating in the
curricular activities of the University and the University is
negotiating with them for such participation.

The
DMP shall supply the latest technical know-how for the said Joint
Venture (IGIT) comprising of Training, literature, Videos and Power
point Demonstrations for Dynamic and Static Moulding Technologies, Cold
Welding Methods, Capilliary Metal Impregnation Techniques, Metal
Preservation and Conservation Methods and metal making industries of
high precision.

VTU
proposes to have world wide electronic presence by establishing data
network interconnecting the VTU campus at Machche, four regional offices
and all the affiliated colleges of VTU in a secure private network and
open up access to this network to the worldwide communities for
collaborative learning using Internet technology.

In
this direction, a Campus wide network at Machche with a fiber optic
backbone, having about 1000 data access points interconnecting all the
existing and proposed buildings is being set up. The campus network uses
the state of art network tiered architecture with Edge and Core
switches and scalable distributed network topology. This network will
meet the computing demand of PG students in the campus, provide
eLearning environment, access to digital library, support examination,
administration work and more importantly have sufficient bandwidth for
Videoconferencing from any network access point.

Further,
the VCONET: VTU Colleges Network will enable sharing of faculty
expertise among colleges, collaboration among peer groups, even out
digital disparity among rural and urban engineering colleges, provide
infrastructure for online examination system, portal to different
digital libraries all over the world and support many more innovative
applications on the net expected in future. The University intends to
start Nodal Training Institute for training the staff of engineering
colleges similar to the staff training colleges functioning in other
Universities. A project report in this regard is sent to the appropriate
agencies for funding.
